I'm gonna love this radio when it's finished. The audio sounds great even with the speaker just sitting there on my bench. It's sure a PITA to work on, though. All the caps are in one big can, and that can is attached to the chassis with some heavy tabs that I can't seem to bend away from the chassis. I've replaced the filters by cutting the wires coming out of that box for now.
The cabinet work may be a bit much for me.. it needs pretty much all the veneer replaced, especially on the front, where someone has just painted it all flat black and there's a lot missing. The bell has holes drilled in it on both sides, but that will be fairly simple in comparison, as I can just take a single piece of new veneer and apply it to the whole thing.
